This is a good idea. We could offer a much extended warranty for the $1500 price point. But we'd have to place a limit for modified boards. Since we want to encourage modifying them, we want to warranty even boards that have been hacked, but at that point, it becomes increasingly difficult to figure out who's to blame if it breaks. -- Timothy Normand Miller http://www.cse.ohio-state.edu/~millerti Open Graphics Project _______________________________________________ Open-graphics mailing list [email protected] http://lists.duskglow.com/mailman/listinfo/open-graphics List service provided by Duskglow Consulting, LLC (www.duskglow.com)
